During the eclipse, the Moon gets no light from the Sun – making this a moment where you can see your current reality, without the nebulous cloud of emotions from the Moon in Pisces. The Sun is over in precise, down-to-earth Virgo. The Moon is in Pisces where it is hard to discern emotions from the past from your visions of the future.
This bit of clarity about your reality today provides a window to see what matters today. Knowing the bare bones of your situation, you can design a path to where you want to be. Find what you want, then what is blocking you from having it – objectively.
This is a good day for journalling, writing down what feels important to you right now and for the next six months. Explore the emotions you feel around it – you can be more objective than usual today.
If you can do this during the 84 minutes of the totality of the Lunar Eclipse – even though this eclipse is not visible in the Americas, the energy is still there.
Any eclipse marks the beginning of a new cycle, which of course involves letting go of something you don’t need any more. A lunar eclipse is more personal, involving how you feel and think more than what you are doing out in the world. These effects last for about six months.
